I've had so many problems happening, that I wanted to just start fresh.  So I removed the program from my PC and from my PDA.  Then I redownloaded the program from your website and reloaded everything.  The PDA version was originally loaded onto a memory card (that was where I thought that maybe I was running into all of those problems) so I loaded it into main memory this time.  It is located at: \my pocket PC\program files\pocket cook.  But somewhere in my system there seems to be some registration that knows that it was loaded on the memory card because when I try to sync (in standard mode) it says:

"could not create remote file -c:\program files\pocket cook deluxe web edition\syncOUT\recipes.pdb to ipaq file store\electronic frontier pocket cook\recipes.pdb file

in Advanced mode I get the message:  "Could not created remote file"

("ipaq file store" is my storage card where it was located before)

AND

on the PDA, I get the message "could not open database - in my device:\program Files\pocket cook recipes" and it opens no recipe file and when I try to "open a cookbook" there are none shone in the list.

Arrrgh!!!  I can see how wonderful this program is going to be when I can finally get it to work.  But I'm so frustrated with it!
